Which brand makes the official NBA basketball?
Wilson makes the official NBA ball. Plenty of players reached for Spalding, which is understandable, because Spalding held the gig for decades before Wilson took over.
Only 55% got it right, making Sport the hardest topic in an otherwise easy week. The kids who follow the NBA would have carried the family here.
Which ocean is on the west coast of Australia?
The Indian Ocean runs along the entire west coast, and it is the third largest ocean in the world. If you pictured the Pacific, that one belongs to the east coast.
77% of players got it, though the states did not all agree. This question produced one of the biggest state gaps of the quiz.
What brand has a round green logo with sound waves?
Have a look at the logo above. It belongs to Spotify, and a whopping 96% of players recognised it instantly.
Make of that what you will, but the household streaming subscription is clearly earning its keep.
